VF Calibre TIP #8 — Using Excel Templates in Visual Factory Calibre (Example: Viscosity Cup)

Many companies already have their own Excel templates for performing calibrations, verifications, or other controls.

Internally validated sheets, with formulas, automatic calculations, and structures adapted to each type of equipment.

In this VF Calibre TIP #8, we show how Visual Factory Calibre allows you to work with customized Excel templates directly within the system, while maintaining:

✔ Your usual templates
✔ Your formulas and automatic calculations
✔ Your technical evaluation logic

But adding what Excel alone does not provide:

🔹 Full traceability (equipment, reference standard, date, user)
🔹 Version control and security
🔹 Centralized database records
🔹 Integration with planning and certificates

🎥 In the video, we use a viscosity cup as an example, but this functionality applies to any type of equipment or verification process.

👉 Keep the flexibility of Excel without giving up the robustness of an audited system.

Troqueles Gaco strengthens its metrological management and statistical process control with Visual Factory Calibre and SPC

🏭 Troqueles Gaco S.L., based in Irún (Gipuzkoa), is a group of companies dedicated to the manufacturing of tooling and stamped parts for industry in general. With a solid track record and ISO 9001 certification since 1998, the company maintains a strong commitment to quality and continuous improvement.

📍 We share the testimonial of Jesús Corredor, Quality Manager at Troqueles Gaco S.L.:

We have held ISO 9001 certification since 1998 and, for years prior to that, we have relied on Elecsoft’s support for the management of measurement and testing equipment, as well as for statistical process control.

In both cases, the application environment is user-friendly and easy to use; whenever we have had questions, the support received has always been outstanding—fast and effective.

When we needed to automate the recording of data collected with CMMs in the SPC application, the result was also excellent.

The applications are continuously being updated, incorporating the needs that arise from their clients.

In short, highly recommended.

📊 The experience of Troqueles Gaco S.L. shows how the combination of Visual Factory Calibre and Visual Factory SPC makes it possible to optimize traceability, automate process control, and ensure the reliability of metrological data, consolidating a strong and sustainable quality culture.
